A statue of a donkey, sometimes called Democratic Donkey, is installed outside Boston's Old City Hall, in the U.S. state of Massachusetts. Roger Webb acquired the bronze sculpture in Florence, Italy.[1] It was installed outside Old City Hall in 1998.[2]

The statue stares at a couple of footprints with the Conservative elephants.
